    "Not for me. but then again..."

    March 13, 2010  |   By G3ar

    Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.4

    Pros

    Free RAM XP Pro works dilligently and perseveringly. The beneficial features are the ability to control the tantamount of of RAM that can be emptied or saved. Other than that primary feature, the interface is intuitive and allows many modifications.

    Cons

    It just wasn't meant to be. (For me, of course) My retiree of a computer with 700MB RAM was managed by this program, but the overall system performance had not been altered.

    Summary

    After reading the top two categories, you might have a sense of my own perspective. I had been a fervent free-RAM user, but the results had not been deemed worthy. When loading various programs which extract miniscule amounts of RAM, my computer had problems of temporarily freezing, the oh-so dangerous 'Not Responding' error, and the debilitating hard drive performance. Lastly, I'd like to say that this is just my own opinion. There are various reviews which claim this programs brilliance, and I am opt to agree on several certanties. Try it for yourself.

    "Smooth~! Nice."

    September 6, 2005  |   By Anonymous220

    Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.4

    Pros

    I recommended download this software, which is better than Rambooster/MemTurbo, it's decent and allow windows running smoother, unlike other software it will just crash ur windows and cause it to reboot.

    Cons

    So far i didnt found any.

    "Very Functional but Archaic in Design"

    July 29, 2005  |   By cunningprose

    Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.4

    Pros

    I normally have about a minimum of 8 programs running in the background at all times on my system. Some applications being the hog of memory cause my system to execute input commands extremely slow. With the install of this application I noticed a great improvement in system performance. My processor is not "noticeably" thinking about what I have told it to do, it does it.

    Cons

    The GUI interface should be beefed up with a modern skin.

    "Do Not Use With Mozilla FireFox"

    July 27, 2005  |   By skader

    Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.4

    Pros

    Has an uninstall feature that restores previous settings and removes most of the program. Also has a ReadMe file that explains both the "semi-automatic" and manual process to uninstall it as well.

    Cons

    I can't say how well this product does when used with the right systems; however I can tell you that if you use Mozilla FireFox then this program should be avoided. After installing this program and surfing the web, I noticed that all the sites I visited were out-of-whack. The color and images were gone from most sites and the font and format of the pages were all messed up as well; websites became very primitive and were also slow to load. Luckily the program has a failsafe point that it revert back to when uninstalled through the program. A much welcomed feature considering I had encountered the same problem after installing RamBooster, but after uninstalling RamBooster the problem remained. Took some time to manually fix my computer - thankfully FreeRam was able to restore the original settings while it was uninstalling itself.

    Avoid this program if you use Mozilla FireFox.

    Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.4

    Pros

    It's small, doesn't get in the way, actually shows you where your memory is going and will free it up so fast...I can't live without it anymore!

    "I was surprised it worked"

    July 14, 2005  |   By rclay

    Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.4

    Pros

    It actually works, and does so transparently. Normally freeware has some kind of limitation or problems, but I've found none so far. I use VMware and run Red Hat Enterprise Linux as an emulation on top of Windows XP. VMware is a memory pig. This product helps alleviate that issue.

    Cons

    None!

    "Installed a few months ago - Works fairly well"

    July 6, 2005  |   By DrBiz

    Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.4

    Pros

    Based on the cost, it works well

    Cons

    A few additional parrameters for greater customization would be a help, however, taking into consideration, it is a godd program.

    "great for games!"

    June 29, 2005  |   By martinw1200

    Version: FreeRAM XP Pro 1.4

    Pros

    Once I'm done browsing the internet and checking my email, it's time for some games. But a lot of debris is left in RAM once I close the programs. FreeRAM clears the junk out and gives me plenty of RAM for the games. It is extremely obvious that the games are running faster.

    Cons

    I can't see any down side to this program.
